Real-life Ad­ven­ture

I liked the Jan­uary 2014 is­sue very much be­cause of the truly mean­ing­ful real-life sto­ries in it. I par­tic­u­larly en­joyed Time to Breathe, which had this quote from Ade­line Lim, a re­cruit­ment ex­ec­u­tive who went on a sab­bat­i­cal in 2012: “My boss was very sup­port­ive, say­ing that if he were my age, he’d have gone for it too.” It’s re­mark­able that her boss sup­ported her de­ci­sion to go on a six­month work­ing hol­i­day and that she was brave enough to do it.
